Don’t forget all the other 3 letter agencies like the IRS, the CDC, etc etc.

One of the top priorities of the next Republican administration needs to be GUTTING the administrative state.

You are calling for theater, and there is a huge difference between your notion of continuing a silly political tit for tat and real justice. The best revenge is to restore rule of law in the US, which starts with a majority in the Congress refusing to fund anything where rule of law does is not the order of the day.

You can force FBI reform at $$ point. Just defund it until real reforms are put in place and at that point cut the staff 50% at the top and 20% everywhere else just to get started. THAT is what you can do to make a difference.

The Republicans will “rise above this” and do absolutely NOTHING.

They will talk the talk running up to the election but then nah.

The right doesn’t do anything about it because they fear them.

Remember what Chuck Schumer said at the beginning of Trump’s Presidency....

“Let me tell you, you take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you.”

The CIA has openly admitted to spying on members of the Senate.

Nobody in Congress has the balls to do anything about it because they know they will either be politically destroyed or killed.

Cruz is correct about this. But, alas, it is too late. The DemoNaziCommies “impeached” PDJT twice without a single shred of evidence of any “high crimes or misdemeanors”

so, they’ve already set the precedent (twice over) for them to continue violating the Constitution (and the Senate actually scheduled and heard those obviously ridiculous and patently imaginary charges.....so the Senate leadership was complicit by aiding and abetting these violations
/.//the GOPe “leadership” won’t do anything to remedy any of this outrage, sorry about that.

Talk about an insurrection, the Dems led an insurrection on our constitution.

An impeachment is a waste of time, but it didn’t stop the ‘rats. I’d like to see the GOP hit back at these bastards. This is a deathmatch and so far only the ‘rats seem to get it, which proves that the GOP is not an opposition party.

Re: Election numbers:

Dominion machines were counting .75 vote for Trump & 1.25 votes for Biden—

So Biden got “81 million votes” which calculates back to 64.8 million.

Trump got 60 million, which calculates back to 80 million.

the difference between a Biden impeachment and a Trump impeachment is that Biden has committed crimes worthy of being impeached.

But it is bigger because all of it involves the political corruption of our agencies.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

All of this flows directly from Usurpation Day, which ALL of our elected AND appointed were complicit in.

The Republicans don't have it in them to retaliate. Clinton's impeachment was an anomaly.

Democrats can impeach President Trump twice, knowing that the Senate will never convict him, because they want the optics of it.

Republicans will look at the Senate and say it's no use, so they won't even try. For Republicans, the optics is one of weakness and fecklessness.

“No the GOP won’t even consider the idea as they would rather suck donkey dick than settle scores with the Democrats!”

Correct. There are maybe four Congressmen and four Senators who would see to it that the RATs pay for their crimes. The remainder don’t have the heart (balls?) for it. Just look at the 700+ POWs cooling their heels in prison for Jan. 6. TPTB in the GOP are completely ignoring that. Those poor people are getting no help from the pols.

The pols will do nothing to bring charges or impeachment to the RAT criminals. I think there might be a different attitude now if PDJT had followed through in prosecuting PIAPS. But he didn’t.

If Cruz told me the sun was out in the middle of the Sahara at noon I’d look up for myself.
